dnetnml - DECnet Network Management Listener

Bugs

       Probably lots, particularly as some of the functions are undocumented and I've  had  to  reverse-engineer
       them.   SHOW  KNOWN  LINKS  doesn't  show  quite  the same information as VMS does. dnetnml relies on the
       information it can get from /proc/net/decnet so it can't show load PIDs or processes unfortunately.

Description

dnetnml is a daemon that serves incoming management requests from remote systems, usually NCP in the case
       of  VMS  and  RSX.  It  is  recommended that the daemon be run from dnetd by adding the following line to
       /etc/dnetd.conf:
       NML            19         N         nobody       dnetnml

       Currently it only serves a subset of information requests. These are (in NCP terms):
       SHOW KNOWN NODES
       SHOW ADJACENT NODES
       SHOW EXEC CHAR
       SHOW KNOWN OBJECTS
       SHOW KNOWN LINKS
       Note that for SHOW KNOWN OBJECTS to work, /etc/dnetd.conf  needs  to  be  readable  by  the  daemon  user
       (usually  'nobody')  or  it will return a Privilege Violation. There is no sensitive data in this file so
       it's quite OK to set the permissions to 0644. Though this is not the default.

Name

       dnetnml - DECnet Network Management Listener

Options

-d     Don't fork and run the background. Use this for debugging.

       -v     Verbose. The more of these there are the more verbose dnetnml will be. Don't use more than one for
              normal operation because it will seriously impair performance.

       -h-?  Displays help for using the command.

       -V     Show the version of dnetnml.
